Good God, the things I remember, and yet I STILL don't know the names of half my coworkers (not for lack of trying, either...maybe if they were all named after poets I'd be marginally less awful at it?).
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Our wings are not tired.
We could just totally rename them all after poets. For instance, anyone you really loathe could be called McGonagall.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Huh. Most of these I didn't know: Internet rules and laws: the top 10, from Godwin to Poe

#10 is funny.
I worked with my boyfriend three companies ago, and developed a small crush on him. I finally asked him to my company holiday party, in an email, about a year after we'd both left our mutual company and were at new, different jobs. Anyway, I *almost* didn't go through with the date, because he responded with too many exclamation marks after his "yes".
I'm glad I shoved Miss McJudgy to the side on that one. We celebrate three years together this December. But I did give him a lot of shit for it, and still laugh at him mercilessly.

Bush Sr. refused to eat broccoli at some official function. I give the man points just for that. As he said, "I'm President of the United States, I don't have to eat broccoli if I don't want to." The Broccoli Anti-Defamation League (or whatever they're called) begged him to recant "for the good of the children".

How the fuck do you peel kiwis? So frustrating.
I like swimming. I love my pool. I love that the lifeguards wave to me when I come and go and so do the instructors who see you every week.

I know, Nora, I totally thought, "wait, um, Nora" and then Googled and looked at your contact info to compare and that's when I found out that he wrote a poem about you!
So all loathed poets will have to be called McKuens, instead!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

For personal eating, I wouldn't bother -- cut in half, eat with spoon.
